Emcon 2015

[melodysparks]

Over 20 years ago I went to a wedding where the groom was a big Star Trek Next G fan.

There I met a lovely gentleman who was the spitting image of Sir Patrick Stewart. While I was at Em-Con I asked a gentleman dressed at Captain Picard if I could take his photograph and then had a little chat with him. I discovered he was the very same gentleman I met over 20 years ago. Since then I have discovered he lives near my aunt and knows my cousin. What a small world

Derek is a lovely man and softly spoken too. I did a double take the first time l saw him.

I bet you're not the only one! :-) I had a few people do double-takes when I cosplayed Laura Roslin (Battlestar Galactica) at Galacticon a few years ago, but then the actress Mary McDonnell came, and there was no comparison. :-)

I would have been convinced too
